Angry Birds Reloaded is a 2021 casual physics-based puzzle video game developed by Finnish video game developer Rovio Entertainment and is the nineteenth game in the Angry Birds franchise. The game was released exclusively for the Apple Arcade subscription service on June 15, 2021.[1][2][3] It is inspired by the classic Angry Birds slingshot games, with the addition new graphics as well as characters and settings from previous Angry Birds media such as The Angry Birds Movie, The Angry Birds Movie 2, and Angry Birds Space.[4]
Gameplay
[edit]The gameplay of Angry Birds Reloaded is identical to that of games such as Angry Birds Classic or Seasons; the player aims and launches birds from a slingshot at pig fortresses until all pigs in the level have been destroyed. This must be achieved before the player runs out of birds to fire.[4] However, unlike previous installations in the series, Angry Birds Reloaded includes an Eagle Island setting, where pigs are introduced as playable characters that can be fired from the slingshot, and eagles appear as enemies.[3][5] Each playable bird/pig has a ability that is activated when tapping the screen as they are mid-flight.[4]
The game is divided into levels, which are subdivided into episodes. Initially, the game included seven episodes. Although the game includes power-ups, unlike in previous games, the game's release as part of mobile gaming subscription service Apple Arcade means that these power-ups are purchased with coins won in-game instead of with real-world money.[4]
